This study found that testosterone contributed to increased arterial stiffness and cardiovascular damage in female mice, linked with decreased estrogen receptor expression, and suggests implications for women with polycystic ovarian syndrome or those taking testosterone.

This study synthesizes knowledge of how dendritic cell signals, epithelial integrins, and fibroblast activity converge on TGF-β1 to maintain or disrupt skin healing, contrasting normal and fibrotic scar formation and suggesting possible integrin and immune-targeted treatments for skin fibrosis.

This animal study observed that dihydrotestosterone increased arterial stiffness and decreased estrogen receptor expression in female mice, potentially impacting cardiovascular health in contexts of androgen use.

In this case report, four sessions of the Broad Ligament Maneuver were associated with improvements in ovarian function and regression of PCOS symptoms, including normalizing menstrual flow and decreasing hirsutism.
